perfect.

i love it

HORS

it actually started with Dropkick Murphys, lol

related: i have a twink i'm FWB with and he's mid-20s. He came over tonight and we were talking and he was like "so I guess we're at war again." and said he was worried about a draft being reinstated and i was like "oh you get to have all the anxiety we had in 2003 and it's brand new to you!"

Fortunate Son is the one on this list that kills me.

Growing up my dad loved CCR. My dad also stayed in college an extra semester to avoid being drafted. And my dad has never voted for a Democrat in his life.

i won't fucking do what you told me, paul ryan!

"ice age coming ice age coming
let me hear both sides let me hear both sides let me hear both-"

i maintain that the only lyrics Paul Ryan liked from them were "I won't fucking do what you told me" because his idea of good and bad calcified at the "fuck my parents" stage of teenagehood

the latter are posers

my other favorite is radiohead

idioteque is literally about climate change

also will never not be funny that people think the band who wrote American Idiot about the fucking Iraq War is "not political."

anyway, 17 years ago (!!!!) i saw dropkick play at the house of blues in boston a couple days before St. Paddy's and it's to this day, one of my favorite shows I've ever had the fortune of seeing

the idea that punk shouldn't be political is so completely at odds with what punk is that...yeah just fuck you? like stop cosplaying.

Dropkick Murphys - Terminal 5 - Onstage Fight included - 3/13/13 YouTube video by mijywoby

Anyway the fight was of course caught on video: youtu.be/QGubnoMqPxM?...

around 1:30

[Chorus] We're the first ones to starve, we're the first ones to die The first ones in line for that pie-in-the-sky And we're always the last when the cream is shared out For the worker is working when the fat cat's about [Verse 3] And when the sky darkens and the prospect is war Who's given a gun and then pushed to the fore And expected to die for the land of our birth Though we've never owned one lousy handful of earth

THEY LITERALLY HAVE A SONG CALLED WORKER'S SONG

WHERE THE CHORUS IS ABOUT HOW THE RICH GET RICHER OFF THE PRODUCTION OF THE PROLETARIAT

IN 2003

[Verse 3] The weight falls hard on the stand-up guy The one you can count on, you can rely Yeah, this is your future, it don't seem right But this is your battle, this is your fight Something in this country's got to change If we're ever gonna see those days again Your parents may have done it with just one job But now we're working for less and twice as hard

This is the funniest thing to me. Like. Back in 2013 they beat the shit out of a guy who did the Seig Heil on stage at their show.

oh man, I *adore* that song. The Warrior's Code is such a good album.

the art of the deal!

scientifically speaking, pretty much any opera singer could snap Timothée Chalamet like a twig

I have arrived in San Antonio. There is something I was meant to remember, ah, well, it will come to me I'm sure

Legally, a car in a bike lane is a bicycle, so you can remove two of its wheels and they can't arrest you.

welp i'm not watching

*exactly*.

Take Me To Your Leader and Going Public are still great albums.

every so often i get an urge to go back to the newsboys' 1990s catalogue when they were allowed to do WEIRD music and weren't tied up with a dude who SA'd a bunch of people

andrrw Tate posting ai cringe and promising to fly to dubai

Andrew Tate has been detained by Saudi Arabia

how it started / how its going

for those who don't know: i'm a grant writer. My job involves writing applications and submitting grants. This is a complaint about that process.

that's outstanding

i love a hidden character limit on the *title* of a project that means you have to go through and change all your attachments to reflect that new, character-limited title.
